I did most/all of the work and I learned a great deal about what to sub out and what to tackle myself.I also learned that flips are time consuming and don't build long term wealth.  

@Alyssa De Los Santos There's a lot to your posts here so I'll try to tackle one at a time:Multi-family, not in lower income neighborhoods - In Texas, owning property is so inexpesive in relation to other markets.  

Feel free to PM me & we discuss further and/or I'll connect you with some newer investors who tackled multi-family up front and have had success.  

Part of what helps me determine rent/flip this is how expensive the housing market is, my time availability to tackle another project, and the availability of houses to invest in.Isanti is a market I determined was near the top in pricing so I sold one in 2015 to purchase two cheaper rentals and I sold my other Isanit house in 2016 to fund a flip and create more working capital.The housing market moves in cycles so I try to change my investment strategy to account for these changes.

The property probably has a lot of rehab hence the $45,000 in repairs that the sellers are afraid to tackle or can't afford.

I'm a professional athlete from pittsburgh playing abroad and i plan on buying my first property when i get back. however, i'm concerned about loans and actually trying to purchase and manage it when i'll probably will be overseas 6+ months of the year. so my question is the possibility of trying to invest while playing overseas and how i could go about doing it, in leaning more towards long term buy and hold multi families properties to accmulate wealth overtime. so any help can be appreciated. p.s. i've been watching the forums and podcasts for a while so this is my first tackle on trying to put myself out there into the community

So I'll try to be brief on this, I'm going to tackle my first flip within the next 2-3 months and just trying to figure out my game plan in my head before attempting.

I suppose the advice that I am looking for is: am I going to be taking on more than I can chew trying to tackle the rehab myself?

I recently contacted a 4-unit owner about his intetest in selling his rental property. this is an off market deal. below is what i got in response. any advice on what steps/actions on how to tackle this?

The sweet spot would be to partner up with the owner of a construction company (or someone who knows the rehab business really well) and tackle it together.
